22 Great Gift in a Jar Recipes & Ideas

Since Christmas is just a mere 47 days away – (give or take a few days because I am really not that great at math…) – and I am what you could possibly call a wee bit Christmas obsessed, I decided to do a roundup of posts pointing to some really great ideas for homemade gifts in a jar.

Gifts in a jar can include anything from pies, cakes and cookies, to bath salts and candles. Your imagination really is your only limit. I have made these types of gifts, as well as bought some at craft fairs, over the years – and they are always well received by whoever they are given to.

So, some of the better ideas I have found by snooping around on the net include:

1. Sunshine Cookie Mix in a Jar: These would be great any time of year – and can even just be given to someone who needs to have their day brightened a bit!

2. Cowgirl Cookie Mix: These look amazing – and come with complete instructions for decorating the jar, as well as printables you can use to make yours look exactly like the picture above.

3. Cookies in a Jar for Santa: These are perfect to give out ahead of time and let the kiddos help to make their own cookies to give to Santa on Christmas Eve! This one also has printables you can download and use.

12. Homemade Cake Mix: This is a recipe for a cake mix that can be used however you want. She shows you a cake she made using this mix – and I would be including this recipe with the cake mix when giving it as a gift. It looks stunning!

14: Country Soup in a Jar: A very easy to make soup that comes with detailed instructions to include when giving the soup as a gift.

15: Chicken Noodle Soup Mix in a Jar: There wasn’t a picture for this one, but everyone loves Chicken Noodle Soup. This is the one that can be given to anyone who is under the weather, or as a nice Christmas gift for those cold winter days.

16. Salsa: Salsa is a great gift idea! And especially at Christmas when there are lots of things going on requiring snacks, salsa is something that most people like – and gives you a break from chocolate!

These are just a very small few of the amazing gift in a jar ideas I found while looking around! I have spent quite a long time on this post – so I will have to add another post or 2 to get some of the other great gift ideas I came across!

For now, enjoy – and stay tuned for more!!
